Adulthood: The begining of the end of childhood?

There's a time in your life you can tell your an adult, that first Christmas or birthday when books outnumber the rest of your presents.

As far as I can see there are only two times when this happens,

When your first born, so your parents can keep you quiet and send you off to sleep, hopefully long enough for them to have a coffee and pretend they don't want to kill you.

And again when you're deemed an adult.

No doubt this is pay back for the crappy little presents you've presented family with on numerous occasions such as mothers day, fathers day, birthdays, Christmas'. 

Now I'll have to give my mother some credit though, she isn't all that bad. Having got me a make your own Morph. with 15 episodes! 

Ahh childhood.

Makes you miss it so much more.
